Car Forum / Lexus Cars / March 2009GX 470 driveline
Noticed the clunk after about 10,000 miles. Mine is a 2008. The problem here is they are so non-chalant about. When I brought mine in for routine service yesterday the service writer said "oh yeah-they have an update for that". Too quick with an answer for an obvious long term probelm. Document/document. This is strike one. And the cup holders suck. Mike If like the 2007 LX a 5 speed then it's probably still an Aisin A750 series transmission. I personally don't care much for Aisin budget transmissions. If you only hear a clunk I think you're lucky. > Noticed the clunk after about 10,000 miles. Mine is a 2008.

Yes, the "much better than average" rating for the GX transmission from consumer reports is a definite red flag. And the clunk is not transmission related, it's re-designed rear control arms. Not exactly something major to worry about... Well, looks like it's a drive shaft problem, starts in a few thousand miles when new. Must be a cheap defective design to do that. See TSB DL002-07. > And the clunk is not transmission related, it's re-designed rear > control arms. Not exactly something major to worry about... Sure, check TSB DL002-07. The drive shaft likes to fly apart I guess. A real cheap design. There was a GX in front, looks really ugly. > Noticed the clunk after about 10,000 miles. Mine is a 2008.
